Hello, I have been using HP Pavilion 20 Destop for 6 months now and it is still under warranty period.
I was getting the desktop with Windows 8 preinstalled but I asked the dealer to install Windows 7 as I feel more comfortable wit it.
I've been getting this "No boot disk has been detected or the disk has failed" whenever I start my PC for quite awhile now.
I always tap the ctrl+alt+del. It takes at least 7-8 tries to start normally.
Yesterday I called the HP Client Service, the attendant made me do the hardware check which the PC passed.
Therefore, there is no issue with the hardware.
This "No boot disk has been detected or the disk has failed" isssue is occuring quite frequently now and now when I'm working on the PC it suddenly stops responding and I have to shut it down forcefully by pressing the Power button.
When I start it back on again I get the "No boot disk has been detected or the disk has failed" issue.
The attendant on the phone said something about the Ubuntu thing which I couldn't understand very well.
Kindly help.
I'm willing to provide information about the product if asked.
